Dimensions are always 1x1

No matter what I do if I type in for n=1:365 n will always have a dimension of 1x1 with the value 365.the same happens when I make a matrix. Could some help?

A for loop cycles through the columns of the array you hand it.

If you use

for n=1:365
    % some code here
end

n will always be 1x1, but it will go through all values from 1 to 365, because you gave it a vector with 365 columns and it will cycle through them.

If you want n to be an array of numbers from 1 to 365, just type

n=1:365; % for a row vector
n=(1:365)'; % for a column vector
